The mastery of engineering allows very small car brands to reach the highest range of the grand standing, provided to limit the production to small series and to apply a great care up to the smallest details. Pagani and Koenigsegg, both founded in the early 1990s, are the best examples.
The Pagani Zonda was created in 1999 and the Huayra coupe replaced it in 2012. Each of these models has evolved over time through a practice of continuous improvement of the composite materials and of weight balancing. Packages become available for upgrading to more recent standard the previously delivered cars.
Like the Koenigsegg, the Pagani are road cars. The Huayra reaches 370 Km/h at top speed. It is road legal in the United States, which was not the case of the Zonda. 100 Huayra were built, limited in the deal with Mercedes-Benz which supplied Pagani in that quantity with the custom hand made engine.
The new feature of the Huayra is its active aerodynamics handled by computer to ensure an impeccable stability. On the same principle as an airplane wing, independent flaps at the four corners automatically change the shape of the car according to its speed, acceleration, rotation and to the throttle position.
A 2014 Pagani Huayra including desirable options was sold for $ 2,03M including premium by RM Sotheby's on March 12, 2016.
Another Huayra of the same year 3 serial numbers below the above example is estimated $ 2.2M for sale by the same auction house in Monterey on August 19, lot 229. Announced as the first Huayra delivered to North America, it is equipped with the Tempesta upgrading package released by Pagani in 2016. Tempesta means storm and Huayra is the Quechua god of the wind.
